Planned as a future BeltLine pitstop and hub for transit riders, Atlanta’s next food-hall concept continues to ink tenants in Peoplestown.
Terminal South, an adaptive-reuse mix of retail and office space spanning about 46,000 square feet, has now signed more than 10 food-and-beverage tenants to take space in two former southside warehouses on dead-end Ridge Avenue.
The project will neighbor the final stop on MARTA’s first bus-rapid transit route—a 4.8-mile connection to downtown—while the BeltLine’s Southside Trail corridor is across the street, to the south.
The food hall, Switchman Hall, is currently remaking one of the old warehouse spaces.
Officials with developer Stafford Properties announced today the project has secured its first full-service restaurant, PÜR Zen Mimosa Wine Bar, and three new dining concepts for food-hall stalls.
Switchman Hall had originally called for 11 stalls when the project was unveiled in late 2022; plans were modified this year to include 18 stalls, ranging from roughly 350 to 730 square feet, following strong interest in smaller retail slots, developers have said.

Menus will include American and Creole-inspired small plates, salads, flatbreads, and seasonal charcuterie boards in addition to house-made desserts and an extensive wine list, per Stafford’s announcement. PÜR Zen is owned by restaurateur Lizcha Bennett.
Food hall additions will include three concepts co-owned by Bennett and another restauranteur, Keon Davis.
